Despite what the weather might indicate spring is fast coming to a close and soon summer will be upon us and the Gaelcon committee are busily planning for the 2015 convention over the October bank holiday weekend (23rd – 26th October).
We in the RPGs and LARPs department are grateful that we’ve got such a vibrant gaming community to work with in this country, one that continually produces top notch games despite it’s small size. Writing for the convention nets you con entry, a bag of goodies, food & drink while you run your game, and last but by no means least, the unending gratitude of the RPG & LARP team. Writing multiple games will net you all that, plus additional fabulous and/or mysterious “stretch-goals”*
Submissions are now open. Phase one for submissions ends on 31st of May – after this point we enter Phase two and begin constructing our timetable. We will continue accepting submissions until the 30th of June but preferential treatment will be given to games submitted by the May 31st deadline. We know people are eager to find out what’s running at conventions and plan their schedules accordingly so we aim to finalise the timetable and have it online before the end of summer.
As ever we can’t always accept every game that we are sent, but we will make sure to notify people as soon as we know how our timetable is progressing.
If you have an idea for a game, then email us at rpgs@gaelcon.com or larps@gaelcon.com
